President Biden has issued a statement in response to the no vote in Kansas on a constitutional amendment on abortion rights.
Tonight, Kansans used their voices to protect women’s right to choose and access reproductive health care.
It’s an important victory for Kansas, but also for every American who believes that women should be able to make their own health decisions without government interference.
